No Bake Peanut Butter Bars

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1 cup butter melted
• 2 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
• 1 cup peanut butter crunchy or smooth
• 1 cup chocolate chips I use semi-sweet
• 1 teaspoon of peanut butter

Instructions

• In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter, confectioners' sugar and peanut butter.
• Mix until well-combined.
• Spread the mixture in a lightly greased 9" x 13" pan.
• Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
• While the peanut butter layer is chilling, melt the chocolate chips and peanut butter, in a microwave.
• Spread the chocolate over the peanut butter.
• Cut the bars into squares, but leave them in the pan. Return them to refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour. Yield: about 2 dozen squares.

Notes

More peanut butter may need to be added to the chocolate chips if it's not smooth enough as it melts.
Keep in the refrigerator until ready to eat as well as any leftovers.
